Which of the following statements about the break statement is false? Group of answer choices Common uses of the break statement are to escape early from a loop or to skip the remainder of a switch. The break statement is used to exit an iteration structure early and continue execution after the loop. A break statement can only break out of an immediately enclosing while, for, do ... while or switch statement. The break statement, when executed in a while, for or do ... while, skips the remaining statements in the loop body and proceeds with the next iteration of the loop.

"The break statement, when executed in a while, for or do ... while, skips the remaining statements in the loop body and proceeds with the next iteration of the loop. " This statement is false.

Explanation:

The break statement is used to come out of a loop such as for, while, do-while loop. The break statement is also used to come out of a switch statement. When the break statement is encountered then the control returns outside the current loop or switch statement and proceeds executing the rest of the statements of the remaining program. The break statement is used to come out of the current iteration early and continue execution of the remainder program after the loop. The break statement does not exit the current iteration and start the next iteration of the loop. It directly comes out of the entire loop. When a break statement is encountered in a switch statement, then the control is given outside the current case and handed over to the remainder of the program after the switch statement.
